Proverbs 15:10-12
New Catholic Bible
10 Severe punishment awaits the one who strays from the right path;
whoever hates a rebuke will die.
11 The netherworld and the abyss lie open to the Lord;
how much more is this true of the human heart.[a]
12 A scoffer[b] does not like to be reproved,
and he refuses to consult the wise.
